Who's out so far from FOC? I've seen Jazz and Optimus a few bazillion times already--I'll want to at least get Jazz at some point, but $15 is a bit much, and it's especially high for Optimus, given how similar he seems to the previous one.

I spotted my first shockwave today. TRU has s buy 1 get one 50% off sale. I should have taken advantage of it, but optimus looks bad/small, and even though jazz looks great i passed.

Nowhere in your incoherent ramblings did you come anywhere close to the answer. Thanks to you, everyone in this room is now stupider having heard you. I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul. -Billy Madison-

Is Shockwave just absolutely im-frickin'-possible to find or what?

Jazz, Optimus, and Shockwave are the only FOC figures on shelves right now.

They're all small and not worth $15, barely worth the $12 they're asking on HTS. I like Shockwave and OP, but they're both lesser items in a lot of ways. I haven't bothered with Jazz, I don't like how he looks.

Shockwave is 2 per case, Jazz is 2 per case, Optimus is 3 per case. A revision is coming with Shockwave at 3 per case. He's just popular.

Yeah, you really should have, that's the best way to do it, $22 for the set is $11 per figure. Maybe you can go back?

The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.

Wow. I could seriously build an army of Primes right now. I guess everyone wants Shockwave for the same reason I do--he's the first Classics Shockwave of any sort.

I think they want him because he's the only cool-looking FOC figure. His weapon emitter looks zip like classic Shockwave though, I have him standing under the GI Joe HISS Tank's barrel and they're not recognizably the same ideas.

I picked up 1 shockwave, but didn't pick up any other. They really didn't interest me. I'll get a chance to open him tomorrow.

Oh, that's fine then, Shockwave is the good one to have, as long as you got him that's all that matters.

I really like him too. Outside of every ones typical complaint, size, my only problem was that vehicle mode was too short and wide compared to the picture on the blister.
